Jagr actually said with an adjustment he believed that McDavid could score 150. I think it is now widely recognized that he was trolling the Oilers, and holy hell, did it ever work!

But this was a talking point on several national radio broadcasts the following day. I don't think there are archived links anymore, but "100 goals!" was seriously discussed on Hockey Central, and it was a feature of the morning show in Vancouver on TSN 1040.
